• Bring your own picnic food, the Bavarian beer garden custom, but buy drinks at the bar and skip party buffets
• Check it is open before you go: the banner at the top of waldheim.de says each day, and on open days it starts at 11:30am
• Free parking and big bike racks, plus charging points for e-cars and e-bikes

A traditional Bavarian beer garden with 2,500 self-service seats under old chestnut trees. A large, shaded playground with climbing frames, slides and swings sits right beside its own block of benches, so parents can sit and still keep the kids in sight.

Families can bring their own picnic food, while drinks come from the bar. Local bands play the garden stage in summer.
